Welsh techno DJ/producer Kelly Lee Owens recorded her debut album on musician/producer Daniel Avery’s collection of analogue synths and it’s a drifty, dreamy collection of fairly minimalist electronic compositions that range from icily efficient dance floor techno to classy electro-pop, with a hint of shoegaze to the sound design. Anxi. matches a foreboding, echoed synth bass line with ethereal, highly reverbed vocals, spoken word from Jenny Hval and epic drifting synth pads, which all drop away halfway through to reveal a perfectly formed crisp, efficient techno groove. And the whole album is kind of like Anxi. on a large scale, an exercise in moving between rich, shifting, ornate pad swells and echoing, highly-effected vocals to the synthetic audio propulsion of grinding synth bass and regimented techno drum patterns. It’s a well-executed synthesis of analogue techno production with melodic, meandering, dreamy sound design.
